INSTRUCTIONS
Cut this up into 1/2" chunks. I don't recommend using more than 1 Lb. because it'll make it taste like spaghetti sauce! :-( ** Drain and reserve 1/2 of the liquid to mix with the corn meal *** These things just add the "Zing" and not much full bodied flavor. That is what the wine and other things do for it. In a large pot, brown the beef, pork, onions and garlic over medium heat. After the above is browned, add the bell pepper and the smoked sausage. Cook for 5 to 10 more minutes. Reduce heat to low (and drain most of the fat IF YOU ARE WATCHING THINGS!) Blend in the tomatoes and spices and simmer for 5-10 minutes. Stir in the drained beans. In a small bowl, mix the bean liquid with the corn meal until it's like pancake patter. Mix the "batter" into the chili and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or MORE. I simmer my batchs for about 2 hours, so use your judgement on this. Sprinkle with Mozzarella or Gouda cheese and serve with sourdough bread. Or, make a Chili sandwich with a good sourdough roll. FOR THE BEST TASTE, FREEZE THE RESULT TO "CURE" THE MIX! THAW, HEAT AND SERVE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SIDE EFFECTS OF THIS RECIPE! IT IS VERY VERY HOT!:-) NOT FOR THE WEAK AT HEART!
